3 men over the last few weeks have targetted a neighbour who gets a little confused re trees cutting down, tiles coming off roof, guttering blocked etc.. Forked out over ?7000 to these guys in cash - only discovered when spouse looked at their joint bank statement. Police notified.


Also heard of this week, vulnerable pensioners being targetted - elderly lady in Dunstans Road area lost a couple of hundred pounds in cash when helpful man offered to put a new light bulb in her room, then helped himself to her cash. Thought to be the same man who got her to sign a cheque and then added a few noughts. Luckilly bank realised it was a forgery and made contact.


Please warn your elderly folk that there are many con men around at the moment

    • Please bring this to Dulwich Village - we only have cafés and chain stores and could really do with some retail dynamism ! There's so much disposable income in the area, but so few good options to spend it.

    • That's absolutely disgusting. If it's true they should have closed the shop until it was fixed.
    • I have read conflicting accounts, some say the Peckham Rye pond chelonians are fresh water turtles others that they are red-eared terrapins. As well as terrapins, there are reports of Musk Turtles, a non native, fresh water turtle species also being released into the wild. They are also better equipped to survive our winters and do not seem to need to bask as much as terrapins. Perhaps we have both. I have not been able to see them close enough to observe markings.
